i no it sound strange such a crap movie but it was there for ever.
I think it was from the Coca-Cola Company. No it played all over in the various chains and independants.

No, they were not the same theater. The Movies at Plantation was in fact a 7 screen theater and if I recall correctly opened a few years before the 4 screen Broward Mall theater did. Both were located near the Mall. The four screen was directly across from the west side of the mall on a side street (that I forget the name of) that led about a ¼ mile or so south from West Broward Blvd.
The Movies at Plantation was directly on W. Broward Blvd. between Pine Island Road and University Dr.
The address here was 8400 W. Broward Boulevard. It operated from 1978 to 1994.
That ad didn’t work for me. You might want to post it again.
That’s it. Thanks.
Wow, I can’t for the life of me remember this movie theater ever existing. Maybe I just never noticed it since I used to frequent either the Mercede, Broward Mall 4 or the Fountains. Is that Google Maps street photo accurate? Was it where J Ristorante is presently? Any help on remembering this theater would be greatly appreciated.
This opened on December 20th, 1978. Grand opening ad in the photo section.

Opened on screen 1 with “West side story”, screen 2 and screen 3 with “The Lord of the rings”, and screen 4 with “Invasion of the body snatchers”, and screen 5 with “Force 10 from Navarone”, and screen 6 with “Brass target” and screen 7 with “Midnight express”
It closed on June 29, 1995, and it was immediately demolished to make away for residents development. UA plan for a 11 screen theatre at the Plantation Fashion Mall (north of Broward Mall) as a replacement for UA Plantation 7, but it has never built.
